Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTGW) and its association with arterial hypertension (AHT) in Peruvian adults. Methodology: Cross-sectional analytical study of the secondary database from the "National Survey of Nutritional, Biochemical, Socioeconomic and Cultural Indicators related to Chronic-Degenerative Diseases". HTGW was measured according to the presence of hypertriglyceridemia (≥ 150 mg/dl) and increased abdominal waist, according to JIS (men ≥ 94 cm and women ≥ 80 cm) and ATPIII (men ≥ 102 cm and women ≥ 88 cm) criteria. Results: the prevalence of AHT was 12.48%, HTGW -JIS was 21.49%, and HTGW-ATPII was 13.96%. In multiple regression, HTGW-JIS showed that they had 1.35 higher frequency of having AHT versus those without HTGW (PR=1.35; CI95%: 1.13 - 1.61; p = 0.001) and HTGW-ATPIII showed that they had 1.38 higher frequency of having AHT versus those without HTGW (PR=1.38; CI95%: 1.14 - 1.67; p = 0.001), both adjusted for convenience variables. Conclusion: HTGW was positively associated with AHT.

hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTGW) was measured according to the presence of hypertriglyceridemia (≥ 150 mg/dl) and increased abdominal waist, according to JIS and Adult Treatment Panel III (ATPIII) criteria
HTGW-JIS showed that they had 1.35 higher frequency of having arterial hypertension (AHT) versus those without HTGW (PR=1.35; CI95%: 1.13 - 1.61; p = 0.001) and HTGW-ATPIII showed that they had 1.38 higher frequency of having AHT versus those without HTGW (PR=1.38; CI95%: 1.14 - 1.67; p = 0.001), both adjusted for convenience variables
En la regresión simple, se encontró que las personas con cintura hipertrigliceridémica (CHTG)-JIS tenían 2,34 veces mayor frecuencia de tener hipertensión arterial (HTA), en comparación a quienes no presentaban CHTG (RP=2,34; IC95%: 1,99 – 2,75; p
Summary
HYPERTRIGLYCERIDEMIC WAIST CIRCUMFERENCE AND ITS ASSOCIATION WITH ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION IN A SAMPLE OF PERUVIAN ADULT POPULATION. Objetivo: Evaluar la prevalencia de cintura hipertrigliceridémica (CHTG) y su asociación con hipertensión arterial (HTA) en pobladores adultos peruanos. La CHTG se midió de acuerdo con la presencia de hipertrigliceridémica (≥ 150 mg/dl) y cintura abdominal aumentada, según los criterios JIS (hombres ≥ 94 cm y mujeres ≥ 80 cm) y ATPIII (hombres ≥ 102 cm y mujeres ≥ 88 cm). Resultados: La prevalencia de HTA fue 12,48 %, de CHTG-JIS fue 21,49% y CHTG-ATPII fue 13,96%. La CHTG-JIS mostro que tenían 1,35 mayor frecuencia de tener HTA versus quienes no presentaban CHTG (RP=1,35; IC95%: 1,13 – 1,61; p = 0.001) y la CHTG-ATPIII observó que tenían 1,38 mayor frecuencia de tener HTA versus quienes no presentaban CHTG (RP=1,38; IC95%: 1,14 – 1,67; p=0.001), ambos ajustados por variables convenientes. Conclusión: La CHTG se asoció positivamente con HTA. Palabras clave: Hipertensión arterial, cintura hipertrigliceridémica, Cintura abdominal, Triglicéridos, análisis de datos (Fuente: DeCS BIREME)
